✔️ Why your body remembers stress long after the event is over
✔️ The difference between Fight, Flight, Freeze, and Fawn responses

8 April 2026, 2:36 am - 37 minutes 2 secondsEpisode 264 - Set Apart for God’s Glory: Missions, Identity & the Power of National Evangelism with Bishop Daniel
In this powerful and deeply moving episode of **Healing & Becoming**, Tamika Thomas sits down with **Bishop Daniel**, a Missionary Kid (MK), Pastor’s Kid (PK), global leader, and the son of the founder of **GFA World** — one of the most influential missions organizations in modern history.
Together, they dive into the real, raw, and often unseen world of global missions, the call to be *set apart*, and how God is moving in nations many of us will never see…but are still called to reach.
Tamika’s Personal Journey: Feeling “Set Apart” Even in Her Struggle**
Tamika opens the episode with a transparent reflection on her own story — knowing she was marked by God even when she was running from Him. She relates deeply to the unique pressure of being a PK and introduces Bishop Daniel, who brings a similar lived experience as both PK and MK.
Their shared foundation creates a rich, honest conversation about identity, calling, and the tug of destiny that follows God’s children everywhere.
* Understanding the 10/40 Window & Why It Still Matters**
Bishop Daniel breaks down:
* What the **10/40 Window** actually is
* Why it represents the **most unreached people groups in the world**
* The three categories of mission fields
* Why millions still have *zero access* to a Bible, a pastor, or a church
Tamika expresses shock and compassion as she compares America’s “abundance of access” with the reality of believers in remote, impoverished nations.
* The Realities of Missionary Work (Not the Instagram Version)**
Bishop Daniel shares sobering stories from the mission field:
* Christians enduring imprisonment, beatings, and persecution
* Believers worshiping in extreme poverty
* Closed nations where following Christ costs everything
* The heroic work of national missionaries who risk their lives daily
He also outlines GFA World’s four impact pillars:
1. Equipping national missionaries
2. Caring for children
3. Transforming entire communities
4. Disaster and crisis relief
Tamika reminds listeners that even “the cost of a coffee” can directly touch a life in an unreached nation.
Why National Missionaries Are the Key to Global Revival**
The conversation dives into the power of sending **nationals to reach nationals** — workers who already understand the language, customs, culture, and barriers.
Bishop Daniel explains his father’s groundbreaking book **“Revolution in World Missions,”** which challenged outdated missionary models and championed national missions long before it was popular.
He also shares the next chapter of GFA World’s global vision, including:
* A hospital project in Rwanda
* Supporting children and churches in Liberia
* Expanding mission work across Africa
## ** The ‘Set Apart’ Retreat: Creating Space for God Again**
Bishop Daniel introduces **Set Apart**, a life-changing retreat designed to help young people unplug, sit with God, and rediscover the whisper that is often drowned out by life’s noise.
They discuss:
* The impact of silence and stillness
* Elijah’s journey of hearing God in the “gentle whisper”
* How overstimulation is damaging the spiritual formation of today’s youth
* Why the church must offer more than hype — it must cultivate depth
---
## ** Practical Spiritual Tools for Every Believer**
Bishop Daniel shares simple steps for growing spiritually right now:
* Reading **“The Practice of the Presence of God”**
* Training your heart to stay aware of God throughout the day
* Listening t
23 December 2025, 8:00 am - 31 minutes 24 secondsEpisode 263 - Are You Ready for This Level of God’s Work? Deep Deliverance, Restoration & God’s Heart for Survivors
This week’s episode is not light, fluffy, or surface-level it’s a divine appointment.
I sat down with **Kelly Hawley**, the founder of **Warrior Bride Ministries**, a woman whose entire life is devoted to the rescue, healing, and restoration of God’s children who have survived some of the darkest forms of exploitation.
Kelly’s mission isn’t just a ministry… it’s frontline Kingdom work.
It’s deliverance.
It’s justice.
It’s advocacy.
It’s healing.
And it’s a bold call for the Body of Christ to rise up and become educated, equipped, and engaged.
In this powerful conversation, we talk about:
* What *deep deliverance ministry* really looks like behind the scenes
* How Warrior Bride Ministries serves survivors of childhood sexual exploitation using **biblical restoration principles**
* Why so many survivors feel alone, unheard, and spiritually dismissed — and how the Church must respond
* The role of education, advocacy, and prophetic intercession in fighting exploitation
* How Kelly partners with God to create safe spaces where healing is possible and hope is unstoppable
* Her recent conferences, the miracles they witnessed, and why this work is urgently needed in every region
* What it takes spiritually, mentally, and emotionally to stand on the frontlines of darkness and refuse to retreat
* A fresh invitation for believers to step into their God-given authority and join the fight for the vulnerable
Kelly reminds us that **deep deliverance is not sensational — it’s sacred**.
And healing is not a luxury it’s a right.
God is raising up warriors, intercessors, and advocates for such a time as this… and this episode will show you exactly what that call looks like.
